Teach Others

Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

1 Thessalonians 5:11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.


Psalm 40:9-10 I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly;
     I do not seal my lips,
     as you know, O LORD.
I do not hide your righteousness in my heart;
     I speak of your faithfulness and salvation.
I do not conceal your love and your truth
     from the great assembly.

Our Heavenly Father wants us to proclaim His love to the people in our path. He wants us to tell others about Him! There are so many people in the world who do not know Jesus.They are not only living in nations far away... they are right next to us in our daily lives. I am so very thankful and blessed that my parents told me about Jesus! They planted a seed in my life long ago that has grown into a precious relationship with Him that only continues to deepen.

God calls us to share the Gospel! Yes, it may seem awkward, maybe you think you are not eloquent or you don't have enough knowledge...  but I know my own life would be so very, very different if I did not have the blessing of people in my life sharing the Gospel with me and encouraging me in my walk with Him. Won't you be that someone in a person's life? Encourage someone in their journey -- no matter where you are in your journey and no matter where they are in theirs. Where do you start? Simply by showing God's love to them. Then rely and trust in the LORD to give you what to say and how to say it. (Luke 12:12)

Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that I do not shy away from any opportunity You give me to share the Gospel. I pray I do not neglect any chance to show Your love to someone. Help me not to seal my lips and conceal Your love and Your truth.  I am so very grateful for that beautiful day I first learned about You. Amen.
